Final Week of the Switch Collector Campaign

We’re heading into the final week of The Switch Collector: Year 3, and I just wanted to take a moment to genuinely thank everyone who has supported this project so far.
Every time I launch one of these books, there’s always that nervous feeling in the back of my mind wondering if people still care about physical game history and preservation the same way I do. Seeing this community continue to show up year after year honestly means more than I can properly put into words.
What started as a passion project years ago has grown into this ongoing series documenting a console and collecting scene that a lot of us have spent countless hours enjoying. The messages, comments, stories, and support throughout this campaign have reminded me why I keep doing this.
This final week is about pushing strong and making Year 3 the best entry in the series yet. We’ve unlocked some fun extras already, and I’m continuing to look at ways to add more value for everyone backing the project.
If you’ve already backed, shared the campaign, commented, or even just followed along, thank you. Seriously.
And if you’ve been waiting to jump in, now’s the time. We’re almost at the finish line.

I appreciate all of you more than you know.

Quick update and a bit of exciting news to share.
I just launched The Switch Collector: Year 3 on Kickstarter, and it was fully funded in under 12 hours. I’m honestly blown away by the support so far. Every project builds on the last one, and seeing this kind of momentum right out of the gate means a lot.
This volume covers the 2019–2020 era of the Switch, when physical releases really started to explode and a lot of new publishers entered the space. If you’ve been following the series, this is the next piece that continues everything we’ve been building.

On top of that, I’ll be at Midwest Gaming Classic this weekend. If you’re going to be there, definitely stop by and say hi. I’ll have books with me and always enjoy talking games with everyone, whether it’s collecting, publishing, or just games in general. We also have a panel at 2pm on Saturday about indie and NES Homebrew games!
